We would expect that a 15-nucleotide sequence that includes a stop codon at the end (as part of the 15-nucleotide sequence) will
kirill [66]

Answer:

4 amino acids.

Explanation:

To become translated into protein, a sequence is read in triplets called codons.

Each codon that codes for an amino acid is made up of 3 nucleotides.

Therefore, a sequence of 15 nucleotides would be translated into a polypeptide that is made up of 5 amino acids. (15 divided by 3 = 5)

However, we are told that there is a stop codon at the end of this sequence.

A stop codon is a specialised codon that does not code for an amino acid, but tells the protein machinery that the polypeptide is complete.

Therefore, the polypeptide would have 5-1 amino acids, which corresponds to 4 amino acids.

Parasympathetic nervous is part of the autonomous nervous system. In the autonomous nervous system, the sympathetic system is used when you enter the "fight or flight" mode. In this case, the body will be prepared to be able to take a decision as quickly as possible in a strenuous state. The nervous also cause an increase in the heart and breathing rate to increase body capability.
